Programming Foundations: Object-Oriented Design
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to object-oriented design, a crucial aspect of software development that allows for planning applications before writing any code. It covers foundational concepts in an engaging and interactive manner, helping you quickly develop your skills. The course guides you through the process of taking app requirements, identifying use cases, and mapping out classes using Universal Modeling Language (UML). The final design can then be translated into code using popular object-oriented programming languages like Java, C#, Ruby, or Python. This course is an excellent resource for anyone looking to understand and apply object-oriented design principles in their software development process.
Skills for certificate:
Object Oriented Programming
Testing
